Show HN: I fine-tuned an LLM to write LinkedIn posts
ideafloww.vercel.appI used to suck at writing LinkedIn posts.
Back in Feb 2024, I wrote my first one… With ChatGPT.
It was absolute trash.
I wanted to get better. So, I tried writing 1 post a day.
Lasted a week. Then quit.
Like everyone else, I fell for the YouTube rabbit hole: "5-minute LinkedIn hacks to go viral!"
Spoiler: None of that sh*t works.
At that point, I had two choices:
1⃣ Keep wasting hours writing posts that flop. 2⃣ Build something that actually works.
I chose option 2.
Because I’m a CS guy. Had to show my superiority :)
So, I created my own AI model to write posts for me. And it worked. (like actually, even I got surprised)
At first, I thought I’d keep it to myself. Why share it, right? (human behaviour)
But then I thought. Nah, let’s make it a product.
So here it is: Ideafloww. It writes LinkedIn posts for you.
Saves you time and money.
As some advice, no one in the real world actually writes with one sentence on each line, and doing so will cause people outside of LinkedIn to think you are unserious.
I write with one sentence on a line all the time.
Of course I might just be living in my own head.
But I find one sentence per line correlates with clearer communication.
An analog to small words perhaps?
YMMV.
thanks, man I wrote it for LinkedIn so thought I could repurpose you know so I have this habit.
Hey HN,
I am a 17 yr old entrepreneur
After 3 tries and failing, I finally created this product.
I used the cursor as the code editor.
But this thing was super fun since I learned a lot of new things.
Thanks.
